Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is creatine and why is it in a body lotion?

A: Creatine is a naturally occurring compound that plays a key role in cellular energy production. In skin care, creatine supports the energy metabolism of skin cells, helping maintain the skin's natural barrier function and protective mechanisms. This is particularly beneficial for elderly skin, which has reduced natural energy reserves and is more vulnerable to breakdown.

Q: Can MoliCare Skin Body Lotion be used around incontinence pads and briefs?

A: MoliCare Skin Body Lotion is suitable for use on the body, limbs and non-genital skin areas. For the perineal area directly in contact with incontinence products, MoliCare Skin Barrier Cream is more appropriate as it provides a protective barrier against urinary and faecal irritants.

Q: Is MoliCare Skin Body Lotion suitable for people with very dry or fragile skin?

A: Yes — MoliCare Skin Body Lotion is specifically formulated for elderly and vulnerable skin types, including very dry and fragile skin. The almond oil and panthenol provide intensive moisturisation without irritation. Apply after bathing or pad changes to maintain skin hydration and integrity.

Q: How often should MoliCare Skin Body Lotion be applied?

A: Apply daily or as needed to maintain skin hydration. For people with very dry skin or those at risk of pressure injuries, apply at least once daily — preferably after bathing. In care settings, incorporate into the regular skin assessment and care routine at pad changes.
